Weirdre?
(tw for some stuff such as; weirdcore, surrealism, horror, and limited references to gore(nothing is pictured visually of any of these things))
Weirdre or weird regression is a term that I have coined to represent age/pet regressors/dreamers who find comfort in the weird, the icky and the macabre.
The reason I thought this was necessary is because these things, while they may bring comfort to us, make most regressors very uncomfortable. Making this a searchable/blockable tag, will be best for everyone. It means that those of us who horror and surrealism give the warm fuzzies, can find each other. As well as that it allows those who aren’t comfortable with it an easy tag to block if they feel uncomfy with anything that can classed as weirdre. It will be less effort to just block the one tag than every single iteration of (horror thing)+agere.
What is Weirdre?
Weirdre can encompass things such as:
Weirdcore (the namesake)
Surrealism
Creepypasta
Slasher Films
General Horror
Backrooms
ARGs
And more…
If something could be counted as bringing you joy and making you regress, but isn’t exactly child friendly in the traditional sense? Then it’s weirdre.
For example, I like Killer Klowns from Outer Space, it’s comforting and makes me regress. But most regressors, just wouldn’t want a post about KKFOS to just be tagged as agere, it’s not very friendly media. It’s a horror movie after all, even if a horror comedy, it could easily be upsetting to some in a younger mind state.
So if I were to tag it as being weirdre, someone with the tag blocked wouldn’t see it, but a regressor that’s like me, might find and enjoy it.
What isn’t Weirdre?
This is a very important topic with weirdre. It’s not strictly child friendly, but it’s also not really nsfw either. So where does that leave us?
Weirdre is NOT:
DD/LG or variants
AB/DL or variants
In any way nsfw, kink or lewd
Venting
IRL gore
ED
IRL disturbing topics(true crime, irl murderers, etc.)
Not tagging your content warnings/trigger warnings
Proshipping
Traumacore
Or anything like that
On gore in Weirdre
Gore is a complex subject here. Of course, by nature of the fact that we’re dealing with horror and weirdcore. There will be some amount of it.
Gore is hesitantly allowed so long as it is fake and not sexualised/romanticised. Be that drawn gore, or via SFX.
It is incredibly important to tag this gore. As even when talking about people who find comfort in horror, they still may not want to see gore.
In fact, tagging upsetting or triggering things is THE MOST IMPORTANT PART of weirdre.
You can’t just tag weirdre and have that be it, the purpose of this tag is to keep everyone safe; above all else, weirdre is a WARNING. You have to let us know what you are warning us of.
Like dead dove do not eat, although much of what goes on in the DDDNE tag is too extreme for weirdre. Weirdre should not romanticise or sexualise foul things. But in the same way you don’t tag DDDNE and nothing else, you shouldn’t tag just weirdre.

!!!! i made the blog @weirdregression !!!!
no art yet, but i made a tag for weirdcore agere and an explanation of what its used for
i really like surreal/weirdcore agere, but the issue is that i’m like the only person i can find who’s so obsessed with it.
would y’all be ok if i mayhap were to make and post some slightly unsettling agere content. there’s something indescribably comforting about it to me, but i also don’t want to squick anybody out. i will put it hidden either way, it won’t just be out there.

i want to take a nap cradled by tree roots in a forest full of bleach white bones and whispers of who they once were
i want the monsters of this world to care for and keep me safe in a way that humanity either can’t or won’t
allow yourself to courtesy to be something small in the face of eternity
let yourself be tiny and still indulge in the scary things that bring you comfort
